Food is great, but they get quickly overwhelmed by a small crowd. We recently went there and never got our food.

Went on the busiest day of the year, Cinco de Mayo, and yes it was PACKED. Stuffed to the gills. But even still it seems like management had the situation under control and all hands were on deck. Must have seen almost 30 staff running around helping customers. Despite having more than 50 tables taken up, we were seated immediately without a reservation and our food came out in less than 20 minutes.Food was very good -- hot, fresh, prepared correctly. "Authentic Mexican" isn't the first term that comes to mind, but I don't see them bill themselves as that. They are a well run tex-mex eatery with tons of affordable options that all come out as you expect.Kudos to the team for working so hard on such a challenging night and making our night that much more enjoyable!

I've been wanting to find a taco Tuesday spot for a while now and this place takes the cake! They have a medium variety of tacos and a good drink menu as well. The portion sizes are the best bang for your buck in the state! I highly recommend this restaurant for their friendly service and great food.

Good atmosphere. Decent crowd for a Saturday afternoon. Everyone seemed to know each other.Dietary restrictions: Did not care for sour cream and tomatoes so was nice not having it come with the tacos.

A take out meal ,for family. Get home missing the sauces that come with the meal . Also ordered beef nachos and the the found they forgot the beef . I'm done with the place .

The truth will make you free

This place is horrendous the name. Hot tamales and what you get is not even close to a tamal to begin withChips are cold you be better getting Tostitos from stop and shop, the salsa is so cold out of fridge pretty much.The waiter never had a tamal her self so she was not sure how a tamal is supposed to look like, my fajita plate the stake had no flavor and in top of all in the menu you get 2 tamales for 10.99 she was charging 10.99 for one that I had to send back they still added to the tap. This was our fist time here and definitely our last ?

I live in town and get take out from here a lot. Today I came in for lunch with my wife. Had a good meal and good service and spent $80+. What annoyed me the most was being charged $8.85 for three diet cokes. You guys have to be kidding me. I’ll never go back after being charged for every Diet Coke I drank. Just absurd and a complete turn off from this restaurant now. Never again. I’ve never been to a restaurant that charges for each soda refill. Doesn’t get any cheaper or ridiculous than that.
